Some dreams become nightmares . . . Ever since discovering she was a mermaid, all Sydney Gao dreamt of was finding someone like her to swim with. After learning Selkie slavers kidnapped her best friend, Garrett Weaver, Sydney ran away to the Salt world against her mother's advice in the hopes of rescuing him. She succeeded too. But Garrett is different now . . . After his traumatic experiences in Crayfish Cavern, Garrett knows all too well what Sydney does not - that the Salt is far from the place where dreams come true. And while Sydney can't wait to explore the Merrow capital city and reunite with her father, Garrett worries what may be waiting for them inside the city gates . . . and if they'll ever be allowed to leave.

Praise for THE SALTED SERIES: ????? - 'Finally a fresh take on what goes on under the sea. A thrilling, dark, page turner . . .

Waiting for sequels, reading some filler in the time between . . . and then Salted waltzes in, and it blew my mind.' ????? - 'The perfect beginning to what I suspect will be an amazing series.' ????? - 'I'm not sure there is a word perfect enough to describe this story. From the character development to the many unique elements, I could not get enough.' Too old for middle grade series like Rick Riordan's 'Percy Jackson' and 'Magnus Chase' books?
